picture collage artwork

I created this wall art for my dad for Christmas, inspired by this blog post. In the original post, she used 6x6 pictures. Since I wanted to use pictures I'd taken around Colorado, print them 8x10 to be able to cut them down to 6x6 would have been really expensive. So, my pictures are 4x4, cut down from 6x4's that are cheaply printed at Wal-Mart. :)

Also, instead of using foil tape like the post, I used very thin ribbon. I did this partly because I thought it would be cheaper, and partly because I wanted it to be black, not copper foil.

The canvases are 16x20, on sale for $10 for all three of them.

I think it turned out really well - completely worth doing!
